Everyone has different wants, needs, and beliefs. You don't value an elite career with high earning potential and that's fine. Other people do and are willing to employ the village to help them. Let them be.[/quote]

Call it what you want, but the village is pretty much raising the children in such situations.[/quote]

+1 Ew don't call your hired help "the village." In an actual "village," you wouldn't get to go off doing something else for 8+ hrs a day while other women raise your child for you.[/quote]

This is just such a weird perspective. Do you think teachers also raise your kids for you? Coaches for after school sports?[/quote]

No mother of young children (<7) in an actual traditional village would leave their children 40+ hrs a week to do something else while some other ladies look after her little kids all day. If you were a mom of little kids in a village, maybe someone would watch your kids for a couple hours while you do a chore, or they would watch your kids while you're sick, but no, mostly you would be there with the other women raising your children together all day.

Full-day care for young children is not "a village." Would you call the nannies on Downton Abbey "a village"?[/quote]
